Can this be grown i a pot in zone 5 and taken in at winter time?

I am in zone 11. My plant is almost 5 feet tall now. You do plant it in a pot at first as it comes as a few sprigs with a few leaves on it. You can question any nursery in your area regarding your question. Hope it works out for you.

I did that with mine, I did bring it in during warm months if we got a lot of rain.

Yes. I grew mine in a pot last spring and took it in for the winter and did amazingly. It lost about 1/4 of it's leaves over the winter but otherwise did great. Keep it by a window that gets the most sunshine and keep it watered. Mine is now outside again and has doubled in size this spring. My mom who lives in in the same zone had a bit more problems with her plant during the winter, but she cut it back this spring and it's growing great now.

I got my seeds from amazon. Planted them in a hanging basket, and nothing came up. So I wrote to Renee's Garden, the lady who provided the seeds. These seeds need to be planted when the temperatures do not go below 50 at night. Renee sent me a new packet of seeds and I planted them in a hanging basket. The temps are warmer now, and they really began to pop up when we got into the 90's. They like moist, humid weather and warm, warm, warm. Mine have not bloomed yet, but they are coming along. If you wish me to contact you when they bloom, just let me know.

Yes depending upon what kind of plant. Works great even fown to 25 degrees for Broccoli, root plants for sure. But tomatoes, squash etc it is not as effective. So it depends upon the heartiness of the plant with regards to freezing temps.

I am waiting til Spring to plant, I have no idea. If you have have high winds and very cold winters I would put in sheltered environment or greenhouse.

With a greenhouse you add +1 to your zone. For example, if you're in zone 6 you would be 7 with a greenhouse depending on the temps ofc. So, that being said. Most likely not. If you must have it up during the winter I would suggest some kind of heater. Also be sure no snow lays on the top. I seen some people say this does not hold heat well. So make sure any places for heat to escape are sealed good.

Bigger pot the better. You can also fool the trees to flower and fruit in fall winter time if you bring it inside. Fruits in 2 seasons. Experiment. Thanks

I'm in zone 5. The tree was pretty small when it arrived last fall, but it lived through our winter, which killed other plants

I'm sorry that I do not know the answer to this question, but surely a local nursery could answer that question for you. We have some cold winters here in North Central Texas, however I do not believe our winters are like what you could have in the Denver area.

Very cold weather will probably will hurt it. Mine was planted in the San Francisco Bay area and on the coast where in never gets very cold.

Probably not unless you bring it inside whenever the temps are going to be lower than 10 to 15 degrees. Colorado is hardiness zones 3a to 7a. This plant needs to be in zone 8 or higher to survive outside year round. And you didn't state which part of Colorado.

depends where in texas you live, you can plant it in a large pot and move it in, at least for the first year or two

they will grow just fine there. As for the height, it's a vine, so what ever you have it growing up or around will determine that. Winter growth would depend on where you live.

Yes. I'm in zone 5, and it does just fine. Make sure to refrain from rotating the plant, the leaves don't adjust and will atrophy/fall off. Also the tree seems to do well with feeding anout every 5 weeks

Not sure what zone 5-6 is, but I live near Houston and it will grow here, in soil that you purchase. The land here is mostly clay, which is not conducive to growing anything, except hay.

Yes. However keep plants for a week or so in original container with lightly watered to withstand the shock of shipping. After that it can be planted in bigger pot. Keep plants in warm/sunny areas of the house. Potted plants don't need too much water, in winter watering every 10-12 days can be sufficient.

I live in north west Alabama where the temperature always drops below freezing in the winter. I plan to bring the pomegranate inside this fall. It is outside now in a large pot, 28 April, and it is growing very well. If the grower expects temperatures below 40 deg F, bring it insideJohn Phillips

Depends on your zone. Check the plants zone and your zone in udsa website. But I would assume that you wouldn't have any issue in any climate if you left it in a pot and only placed it outside during the sumner. Remember no direct sun light or at the least very little.

No sure. I know it required at least 5 hours of sun a day. But you can plant it in a pot and place it indoor near windows with the most day light during the day and no worry about the zones.
